Year 7 & 8 maths tutoring — NSW Stage 4
The jump to high-school maths is where many capable students quietly start to struggle. Claritute keeps Year 7 and 8 clear — algebra, integers, fractions and Pythagoras — with lessons that show every step and prove the answer.
Full access is $25 a month.
Steady the jump to high-school maths
Stage 4 is where maths gets abstract. Numbers become letters, negatives appear everywhere, and the pace picks up. A student who was fine in primary can lose footing fast — usually not because Year 7 is too hard, but because a primary foundation (fractions, times tables, place value) never fully set.
Claritute teaches each Stage 4 topic the way a strong classroom teacher does: the idea shown clearly, a worked example done properly, then the pen handed back. Everything is mapped to the NSW syllabus and stays in lockstep with school, and the free Gap Finder traces any wobble back to its root so you fix the cause, not the symptom.

Find the missing block — fast
A short diagnostic pinpoints exactly which earlier skill is causing the trouble, then builds the plan around it. Foundations first; confidence follows.
Then it’s their turn — every time
Every concept is drawn, not described — 800+ original diagrams — and each worked example hands the pen back with a matching question and a self-check.
Built and taught by Angelo Hanna
Every lesson is written, checked and taught by a registered NSW teacher and mapped to the NSW K–10 syllabus — so home lines up with school. Not scraped, not outsourced.

Frequently asked questions
What is Stage 4 maths in NSW?
Stage 4 is Years 7 and 8 of the NSW Mathematics K–10 syllabus. It covers computation with integers, fractions, decimals and percentages, algebraic techniques, equations, linear relationships, ratios and rates, indices, area, volume, angle relationships, Pythagoras’ theorem, data and probability.
My child was good at maths in primary but is struggling in Year 7 — why?
It is extremely common. Stage 4 introduces abstract ideas — pronumerals, negatives, formal algebra — and any small gap from primary suddenly matters. The free Gap Finder pinpoints the missing foundation so you can rebuild it, instead of just pushing harder on Year 7 content.
Do you cover algebra and Pythagoras’ theorem?
Yes — algebraic techniques and equations are among the largest parts of the library, and right-angled triangles (Pythagoras’ theorem) has its own set of step-by-step, diagram-led lessons.
How is this different from a private tutor?
A private tutor in Sydney averages around $64 an hour, once a week. Claritute is $25 a month for unlimited access — every lesson, practice exams, the Gap Finder and a study assistant — built and taught by a registered NSW teacher. Many families use it alongside, or instead of, weekly tutoring.
Is there a free trial?
Yes — 7 days free with full access. Cancel anytime before it ends and you pay nothing; after that it is $25 a month for the whole Years 3–10 library.
